    It's for my own good, I know! Totally learned how to add things to a commit but then remove things that shouldn't be there and got added by accident. Look at me go!

    Ok I think my server might be acting up again but let's see if this will post!

    I'm doing the My First Game Jam, only 4 days left and I'm kinda struggling, but it's been a learning journey for sure. I had this ambitious idea for a 3D tile-based puzzle thing, but the real puzzle is how I thought I could pull it off solo! Don't even have anything pretty to share, I did have this one model animated but it seems to be broken nowπŸ˜…

    Definitely gotta get the hang of scoping down, but I got some awesome tips from my jam advice thread, it's all good! πŸ™Œ

    Complete with that part where you finally snap back to reality and realize someone was talking to you, but you completely spaced out and ignored them!

    I'm like 99% sure this is in my library too, probably one of those Epic freebies at some point? And after reading this thread, I'm convinced to give it a shot. Sounds fun!

  • Tips for my first game jam?

    This tip is seriously amazing, thanks! I took notes for my next try, though judging by how this one turned out, what I thought was bronze might actually be more like gold. πŸ˜… Guess I gotta put in some work and fine-tune things a bit more.

  • Tips for my first game jam?

    Hey, y'all! Just wanted to drop in and give a big shoutout to everyone in this thread. Tried to reply earlier, but my server went bonkers, and then yours went down too. Talk about bad luck! πŸ’€

    Anyways, it's been a wild week, but your tips have been a total lifesaver! I might not finish everything this time around, but that's alright. Gotta work on scoping down my projects a bit better. The jam community has been amazing, and I've learned a ton about Unity. Thinking of giving it another shot in the Winter version!

    And, here's a little confession: I've never used version control before, but after reading your replies, I'm totally convinced it's a must-learn. πŸ˜… Still getting the hang of it, but I can see how handy it's gonna be. So, thanks for the nudge in the right direction.

  • Hey, everyone! So, I'm new here and I've been checking out all the super helpful posts in this group. After reading about it being beginner-friendly (totally makes sense with that name, right?), I decided to join the My First Game Jam! It just kicked off tonight, and I'm going solo on this one. The theme is "cycles," and I'm drawing blanks on good ideas, but I'll sleep on it and hope something clicks. Basically, I'm crossing my fingers that someone here has some tips for a newbie like me diving into her first jam! I kinda got carried away chatting in the jam Discord till late, so now it's time for some sleep. But I'll be ready to jam in the morning! By the way, can I share what I create here, or is that not allowed? Thanks, y'all! You're the best! πŸ™Œ
